briever Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 They've rebooted Quantum Leap - *******s, I bet you they ruin it. Bad Sisters is excellent - might be overly long in 10 episodes but the first 6 have been excellent. Great script and cast - some excellent characters.

vegas-voss Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Narcos-Saints 8/10 Korean show but based in Suriname about cocaine traffickers ( it's seemingly based on true events ) it's very entertaining and very violent and just another great Korean show. It's on Netflix Edited September 22, 2022 by vegas-voss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Andor got off to a strong start with the first three episodes. It's gritty. It's grounded. It's grown up. Every actor is using their own native accent. A solid espionage thriller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Findlay Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Inside Man BBC1. Stanley Tucci is excellent in it imho. Catch up on Iplayer if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cade Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Love, Death & Robots, an anthology series of short animated productions, each in their own art style. All pretty much inhabiting their own universes, with nothing connecting any of the stories. Some incredible work on show. 3 seasons so far. In a similar vein, The Animatrix, another animated anthology in various art styles, but very focussed on the lore of The Matrix films. Came out between the 2nd and 3rd films, and is arguably better than both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its full of so many plot holes or unconvincing behaviours but its actually quite riveting I feel. Tucci is always value for money and his take on Hannibal lector is pretty good. 😮 I even was going to cheat and watch the last two episodes on iplayer as i assumed the whole series would be on it. It isnt. So we just have to wait until tomorrow night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briever Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Just finished the last episode of Better Call Saul - mildly disappointed - the last season was a bit of a mess and the plot line of Spoiler destroying his brother's former partner was over elaborate and a bit daft I should probably have binge watched the last season - it might have flowed a bit better - still great TV over 7yrs and sad to see it finish.

Tommy Brown Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Really good opening to The Walk-In last night on ITV.

If you haven't seen them already, Clique (a thriller series about students in Edinburgh) and Guilt (a murder thriller), are both filmed in Edinburgh and are good too.

Americana Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 House of Dragon has slipped slightly since the cast change. Not sure why with millions invested they couldnt afford a bit of make and the use of the same cast. Dahmer was excellent , although his neighbors character was given far too much annoying screen time. Came across as a black comedy that switched to an overacted horror for the last two episodes. Never mind Yellowstone returns in November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaside Dave Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Watched the Jeff Dahmer series in 2 days then dead up about it afterwards to see what they missed and what they added in. Dad was teaching him how to carefully cut up roadkill to look at all organ parts at like aged 6. Ma took off for weeks anytime she read a UFO appeared in the sky. Lad stood no chance in life. Still no excuse for things he did. Maybe order his dad's book see what he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

periodictabledancer Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Just started binge watching Lillyhammer on Netflix (weird seeing Bruce Sprinsgteen's guitarist in a lead acting role - and he's very good). For a bit of a laugh, it's an easy watch with some genuine LOL moments. The plot's obviously comedic and not to be taken too seriously but it does give an interesting insight into modern Norwegian society and the problems it's facing with its immigrant influx. The script writing is very good and on a par with any decent UK comedy IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
